There have been millions upon millions of books printed since 1500. Maybe, MAYBE 2% of them are digitized or available as e-books, most of those being fiction.

Same with recorded music. Without the actual LP's or books, digitization is impossible. the people who think Libraries should go all digital are fucking morons. That is like saying that in 1600 libraries should have disposed of their manuscripts or papyrus or scrolls or handwritten letters because from then on everything would be in bound printed books. Just a personal peeve of mine
